“When you sow maize, throw four seeds at a time: one for the wild animals, another for people with a taste for what’s not theirs, another for festival days and another for the family. Maize is not a business but food for survival, our sustenance and our happiness. When we plant it we bless it to ask for a good harvest for all.
But we have recently found out that native maize varieties have been contaminated with transgenic seeds. This means that what our indigenous peoples took thousands of years to develop can be destroyed in no time at all by companies that trade in life.†Aldo González Rojas, Zapoteco, Oaxaca.
